We do not need a clean DACA Bill

Some wrongly believe that without a clean DACA Bill it would mean there would be no one to work the fields, thus we would all go hungry. Nothing could be further from the truth. There are requirements for DACA recipients, but I’m not sure if they, like most of our other immigration laws, are enforced. DACA recipients must have no criminal record, proof that they were brought here before 16 years of age and must be students, or completed school or be in the military. Passing a clean bill will mean no leverage for Republicans to get any kind of immigration bill passed, as the liberals would have gotten everything they wanted and their next step would be amnesty and the right to vote, votes for Democrats that is.

I am not happy to watch these illegals, DEMAND a clean DACA Bill let alone demand anything. How did it come about that illegals get the right to demand anything?

We have an estimated 11.5 million illegals in our country, more than enough to tend to our crops so we don’t starve. The Federation For American Immigration puts the cost for these illegals at $134 billion a year. Some work and pay taxes, about $16 billion a year, leaving a deficit of $118 billion a year. In 1993 Diane Feinstein said that America can no longer afford to be the welfare country for Mexico. All through the 1980s and 90s the Democrats wanted secure borders to stop illegals from coming here.

That changed in 2005 when the Service Employees International Union broke away from the AFL-CIO over immigration issues. The SEIU the biggest union at the time with 1.7 million members, many whom are immigrants, meaning 1.7 million voters.

So for liberals it is all about the votes not the people.
